I can tell you this much... THIS project is my #1 priority (even when the military stuff gets in the way) I am still pushing for this project because I made this my baby I want it done and I have learned how I might have done a couple things differently (like not giving in to every customers needs) I DO want to make everyone happy but right now....I just want it to be over. I will see this through because I made a commitment, just give me a little break.

Thank goodness you did this through AO, we aren't the types to piss and moan. We are all mature enough to realize that this was done as a favor to us.Originally posted by Tracy_ptpI will see this through because I made a commitment, just give me a little break.
We appreciate it Tracy. Thank you.

I wouldn't let it get to you too much. After all, it was us who moaned and whined that we wanted to change this, add that, update the other. You patiently worked through that. Then, it was us who moaned and whined that we didn't understand what the options were, etc., despite them being pretty clearly listed. Then you let us keep on changing things around. Combine that with all of the little eventualities that come along with a small run of parts in a shop with other priorities, and it is not surprising that it is taking as long as it has been. Sure, you could have put your foot down, and cut people off with strict deadlines, but then they would be crying about that, too.
People are fickle, and sometimes it seems like AO is the worst. People here have been screwed by vaporware in the past, and are understandably more paranoid than others, but there has been a lot of flip-flopping since long before those debacles. Sometimes it seems that, more so here than other places, you are truly damned if you do, and damned if you don't.
Would more updates be nice? Sure. For those who actually need the bodies to play, I am sure it is excruciating. However, you shouldn't stress out too much. I am sure that when the bodies arrive, they will speak for themselves, and all of hiccups here will be mostly forgotten."My Jell-O is dying in the audience..."

Hey! I haven't whined or moaned, and the questions I've asked (Do you have Benchmark frames available? Do you have Armson barrels?) have let them sell old stock.
Since I'm so awesome Tracy, can I get mine before the whiny kids?
I'll send you pictures of my setup when it does get here Tracy. Mine will be the mostest prettiest one ever.

Originally posted by vf-xxAnd Tracy, I personally appreciate you being the contact point for this.
I don't mean to harrass you or anybody else there. I just want to be informed. I (and presumably the rest of the 'we' here) had no clue that Russell was sick.
As with the grenade launcher thing earlier, I don't think we'll mind too much so long as we're informed as to what's going on.
There's just been alot of bad precident going around (G-Force, Noxx55, etc..) where things disappear and we have no clue as to what's going on.
most of us are not complaning or have whined about update status or pictures. This is not a shot at you, before you start flaming, just saying that as you and some others have said "we". Most of us know things come up and when dealing with custom stuff that is a given most of the time. I like the fact that Tracy and Russel are going to cut a proto, put it gothether and make sure everything does work like its suppose to. I am sure Tracy and Russel would take pictures and updates when they have something good for us. Me I will wait and have no worries at all because i know when it gets here, it will be awesome, sweet and be done right, and thats because its a PTP product and Tracy, Forest and Russel care about what they put out. That comes across very clear in the few deals and contact's that i have had with Tracy.

Fair nuff. It's very difficult not to generalize. I tried not to, and failed a bit.Originally posted by C_losjokermost of us are not complaning or have whined about update status or pictures.

Im so sorry this has drug on so long guys .
I had every thing ready to cut the breach and the front block last monday but my doctor told me i have prostatitis and thats why i have no energy , stomach pain and feel like i have a golf ball up my butt .
He gave me some medicine that isnt agreeing with me so after a week of taking a sulfur type med i have to go back in tomorrow morning and get different meds
I just thank God my guys are keeping the shop running smoothly while im away .
I just wish one of them could program these parts but there not at that level yet .
This is the first project im going to do when i get back on my feet and into the shop .
As soon as i make some progress i will post pictures and maybe video .
